What Breed is my Toby?

Hi all.

Just thought i'd sign up and see if someone could help me and my fiancee find out what sort of dog our Toby is.

We got him at 12 weeks old from a woman who had bought him but then found out she was pregnant and decided not to keep him.

She told us he was an alsation cross, but that was it.

We've been told so far he that there is definately Alsation in him but the rest could be a number of things, Dane, Ridgeback, Lab, etc...

So if anyone has any more ideas and shed some light on this for us we would be very greatful.

I know the pic i have here isn't brilliant, but can tell ya he is about knee height now but still quite thin at the back end and has a long tail which curls at the end. He is 6 months old now, this picture is not very old at all. Any more info needed please ask.

Thanks and hope to hear from you all soon

Stacey, Kit and Toby

I say he's got some shepherd in him too although I'm not sure about anything else.

You should make your own species... call it behoupherd. But you can just say what you think it is.
